About
Can a comedian with an offbeat, surreal style make it in Hollywood? Tim Robinson has never fit into the mold of traditional comedy stars, and his journey from Detroit’s improv scene to mainstream recognition has been anything but conventional. From his short-lived stint as a performer on Saturday Night Live to the cult success of I Think You Should Leave, Robinson has consistently defied expectations. But would his unique comedic voice be enough to sustain a lasting career? Robinson’s path to success was filled with obstacles. Breaking into television wasn’t easy, and after struggling to find his place at SNL, he faced the challenge of proving himself outside of the legendary sketch show. Co-creating Detroiters with Sam Richardson was a labor of love, but despite critical acclaim, the show was cut short. However, Robinson refused to let setbacks define him.
